Meet Elemenopie! 2 years oldAre you ready to meet a truly unique kitty? Elemenopie is a two year old female Tortie with a personality as big as her frame (and she’s one LARGE cat—just naturally huge, not overweight!). She’s the queen of relaxation and spends her days lounging around and gazing out the window, keeping an eye on the world outside.This sweet girl is a people-lover at heart. She’s content with the simple things in life: a cozy spot by the window, a steady supply of food, and the love of her favorite human. While she may need a little warm-up time to adjust to other cats, once she’s settled, she’s happy to coexist and generally just ignores them.Elemenopie is the perfect companion for someone looking for a laid-back, affectionate feline friend. If you’re ready to open your heart and home to this special girl, she’s ready to bring her gentle, loving presence into your life.Paperwork? She’s got it all covered—she’s ready to go!IMPORTANT: Please read all below, especially if you live outside of Texas, which is where our rescue is located.Apply to adopt on our website: https://www.charmingpetrescue.org/adoptAll of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots.ALL of our animals are located in Boerne, TX, but transport after adoption is available to other states for a $300 fee for dogs or an additional fee varying by location for cats.

This is Kitty! She is 3 years old and was a mommy to 6 kittens this past June. She currently still lives with 3 of her babies, so she is comfortable living with cats. She is good with dogs as well as she also lives with 2 small dogs. Kitty is calm, patient, independent and does her own thing. She can be cuddly and affectionate when she’s in the mood but especially when it’s time for bed. Kitty loves the outdoors but we don’t let her out as it’s not allowed in our neighborhood but she loves to look out of our windows! We are hoping to find Kitty a calm, loving home. She does best in quieter environments, as she can feel a bit overwhelmed by small children if they’re too rough. She has never shown aggression, she will simply retreat to a quiet space if she needs to. She’s a gentle soul who would thrive in a peaceful setting.

Ruthie is a sweet and happy kitty! Her purr says it all! She is perfectly fine being picked up to lay on one’s lap. In fact, being petted is what she enjoys the most along with cozying up. Noisy balls with bells adorn the floor of her living quarters, however she favors quieter toys, like sticks with dangling ribbons and such. If you do not initiate playtime she is content with pets! Her friendly nature made transitioning to her foster home a breeze! She is a growing kitty with a relatively good appetite for kitten food.
